All I Want For Christmas Is .....

I could really use some new bedding. Nice bedding. I would really like to retire the bed-set my grandmother gave me. The peach, grandmotherly frills just aren't doing it for me anymore.
Cutlery. Forks. Spoons. I seem to have a shortage. I don't know where my utensils disappear too - may have something to do with having 3 boys leaving them at school. Either way, this seems to happen yearly.
Clothes. As a parent sometimes I seem to forget about clothing myself and find my wardrobe severly lacking anything up-to-date.
What are you asking Santa for this year?

....a PSP!
Haha sorry, that topic title just reminded me of Sony's bad viral marketing campaign.
I Could use more furniture for my living room. It's a barren sight right now. -
I hope Santa sees fit to bring you some forks!
I've discovered if there's anything I really need or want, I'd better just get it for myself.
My family is notorious for gifts that either were damaged in the store and don't work/are half-broken but on clearance...
Or, my dad's recent tendency, to just pull random things from the fifty-cent bin at the fleamarket to give to me.
These are sometimes given with the phrase, "Well, what was /I/ gonna do with it?"
Yup, it warms the heart, it does. Somewhere in the sub-cockle region.-
Haha. Excuse me for laughing but I can relate to that. One side of my family is notorious for that as well. They are in love with the Dollar Store and clearance shelf items.
Besides that, I find it useless to even suggest something to my family because they don't take me seriously anyway. This goes way back to childhood, when my dreams of owning a puppy were crushed. I asked for a puppy one year only to wake up Christmas morning to find a "Pound Puppy" poking his head out from underneath the couch. I fail to see the humor in that.
Secondly, and most recently, I wanted to take up guitar lessons and asked for an acoustic guitar. I got a set of pots. Hmm. -
Heh, no, laugh away-- it is totally funny. And I definitely understand what you're saying.
For my birthday one year, my parents cobbled together a stereo for me out of an 8-track deck (note: this was in the early 90s) and a few other things...
And then I wasn't allowed to take it with me to college because they said they enjoyed using it.
I ended up working to buy myself a CD player.

My husband asked what I want for Christmas. I said absolutely nothing. Anything that we want, we just buy throughout the year. As a result, I never know what to buy my husband for his b'day/Christmas. So we decided for Christmas to buy ourselves a 52" TV for our master bedroom and a Wii to go along with it and forgo individual gifts.
Really there are only 2 things I care about having/doing this Christmas
1) making a very special Christmas for my kids
2) hosting a big Christmas party with my family and friends and also hosting a candy and ornament making lunch.
If I didn't get any gifts, I would be totally fine. -

In the number 2 spot would be to have a huge family Christmas party.
